Like a kid who is nervous because it is their first flight and they saw the flames from a plane crash last week on TV? I forgot, all screeners have a PhD in Child Psychology, too, in addition to the long list of other job skills.
How many planes have been hijacked by non custodial kids? Just wondering.
It'd be interesting to see if the population of TSA employees with more than three years of continuous service includes a higher proportion of sex perverts than say office building rent-a-cops who have had three years of continuous service there.
Certain jobs attract certain types of people more than other jobs. For example, The Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006 gives people working in law enforcement on sexual perversion matters civil and criminal immunity from things perceived as arising out of the performance of their responsibilities and functions. It also gives the federal government and jurisdictions immunity. Guess what kind of sick people who aren't caught yet will gravitate to those jobs if they can help it, once they know about the "immunity" cover.
